that's certainly not the first sex scandal to bring down someone in washington, it certainly won't be the last. but tonight there are growing questions about the timing of how the word got out, whether more people in the government should have been told or been told sooner that the fbi was investigating a case involving the director of the cia. we're keeping them honest as we do every night not to take sides, you can get that on other cable news channels, but to look for the truth, the facts. here's what we know right now about who knew what and when. according to "wall street journal" the fbi discovered the affair between petraeus and his biographer, paula broadwell, in late summer. we'll have more on how in just a moment. so the fbi reportedly knew in late summer that the head of the cia was having an affair, but it wasn't until months later after election day that president obama found out, and the house and senate intelligence committees didn't find out until friday. congressional leaders from both parties are angry, they say they should have been notified sooner that there were p

>> yeah, you know, it's washington, isn't it. i mean, you know, the theory, what petraeus is expected to talk about is he had his talking points. he got them declassified, approved to go out there in public. when ambassador rice started talking from her talking points, this included other information that wasn't exactly what the cia thought might be really going on. i think some members of capitol hill have brought it down to this point, was the obama administration incredibly incompetent or did they mislead congress, or did they just simply not know. probably it's a little bit of all three. >> let's turn to suzanne kelly. the fascinating thing again today was the senators allowed in to see this video, this closed circuit television video, that included very disturbing scenes of ambassador stevens' last moments. but also, it seemed to clarify, didn't it, exactly what was going on in the buildup to this attack. there was no obvious sign, according to the senators who have come out publicly after this, of any protest. >> yeah. that

joining us now from washington, howard kurtz, host of cnn's "reliable sources" and "newsweek's" washington bureau chief. your column today suggests that david petraeus had a lot to do with constructing his own image, which was quite good. he devoted a lot of time talking and courting journalists. correct? >> that is exactly right. this is a guy who when he was a four star general and even as a junior officer was portrayed as practically being able to walk on water. he was on magazine covers, he was touted as a potential presidential candidate, and that was no accident. he gave a lot of access to selected journalists, not the kind of access that perhaps paula broadwell got, but nonetheless journalists travelled with him in war zones and called them to talk off the record or on background to keep those relationships strong. >> has the media given him a pass because people like him? and he had a stellar record? if this was a guy that had some controversy in his past or maybe wasn't real courteous to people and had a bad reputation, people would have been all over him, but the tone seems to be
